title: iPSC crowdsourcing: a model for obtaining large panels of stem cell lines for screening.
abstract: A key to tapping the potential of iPSCs is the establishment of readily accessible well-characterized panels of lines for custom screening. Here, we propose a crowdsourcing strategy to rapidly develop a large repository of iPSCs and provide a model for how the NIH could support this effort.
